You must relock bootloader and flash original recovery.img
You can find both in this forum

I did it by flashing stock recovery. The bootloader can be unlocked.
I also removed the root binary(you have the option in super su - full unroot). Then I reflashed twrp.
Good luck.

From what I understand you're saying you do not want to install a custom rom, just rooted stock rom?
Yes you can still recieve ota update but I think you must relock the bootloader before you install ota update
You could do that yet it would be an unbearable and unnecessary effort.
Just go with Android Revolution HD.
It is in sync with the OTA updates, nothing would look or feel different than stock. But has a better performance and battery life overall.

All right, I want root my stock rom and (Titanium Backup) and to continue to have the official update.
INFO:
Unlocking through htcdev.com will wipe your phone to factory defaults. Nothing will be wiped of you sd-card, only of your phone.
Ok, but after i have ulnocked the phone with htcdev, where find a guide for root?

After you unlock, you can use the same procedure that you do for Revolutionary, namely you install ClockworkMod Recovery and then from CWM recovery you can install the lastest version of su-3.0.xxxx.zip to root the ROM. Then you can use Titanium Backup, BusyBox, etc.
Hello, few days ago I bought an HTC Developer Edition (64GB). Came with Android 4.1.2 and came Unroot. So, because I need to use Titanium Backup I root it and I installed Clockworkmod recovery 6.0.4.4 and then Superuser to root it. The problem is that now I cant make OTA updates (errors when try to update), so my questions are: how can I make OTA updates without errors? Need to install a Stock Recovery again? Where I can find it?
Thanks in advanced!

You need the stock rom without root and the recovery stock for your version main.
After you can apply the OTA
But if you have the Dev Edition, this ruu can help you

This ruu will erase all data (also the sd) from your phone and it will upgrade your phone as stock, with stock rom, recovery, firmware etc.

I had rooted my K3 note by replacing the stock recovery with TWRP with the help of SP Flash tools and installing SuperSU.
Recently the Marshmallow OTA update rolled out for the Indian K3 Note. However, when I try installing it, the phone simply reboots without updating. Going through the forums, I believe that this is due to the absence of the stock recovery which seems to be required for installing the update.
I also believe that if I try manually flashing the OTA update zip through TWRP, it'll probably fail, since this is what most people have attempted to do so have experienced.
So how do I go about installing the OTA update now? Do I have to reinstall the stock recovery or is there a workaround via TWRP? If I do have to unroot and install stock recovery, how do I go about it? I don't want to go through the hassles of unrooting my phone to install this update, neither do I want to apply any unofficial ROMs such as the cuoco92 one.
Suggest me some solutions guys..
Thanks in advance

Have you tried doing the same? Won't that require the phone to be unrooted?

Stop spreading misinformation mate, if you don't know what you're talking about. I've spent the whole evening looking through the internet regarding my query where all of them say that the OTA update only works with stock recovery. Flashing the official OTA update with TWRP will most definitely not work.
There is no definitive article or post which explains how to do it with a rooted phone and custom recovery, which is what I'm looking for.
